Chapter 772 Good and Bad Things ([-])

"My lord."

The Lantern Festival has passed, and although the snow is no longer falling, the weather is still too cold, so it is not easy to draw pictures of ladies. With nothing to do, after lunch, Fourth Master invited Wu Sidao Talking about a round with hands, in order to pass the boredom of doing nothing, the round has just reached the middle of the game, when the battle is in full swing, but I saw the monk Yin hurriedly turned out from behind the screen, and walked to the copywriting in a few strides. Stepping forward, he folded his palms together respectfully and called softly.

"What's the matter, say."

Fourth Master's hearing is very good, and he knew that it was Monk Liaoyin who came, but he didn't take his eyes off the chessboard, he just asked a question calmly.

"My lord, the news just came from the inner court that His Majesty has issued a decree to make Renjun Wang Hongqing the chief examiner of this subject."

Since the fourth master had a question, Monk Yin didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly reported what he got.

"Understood, let's step back."

Hearing Monk Yin's words, although Fourth Master's face remained calm, the hands hanging in the air visibly trembled a few times, but they stabilized quickly, without any instructions , just ordered noncommittally.

"Yes."

Seeing that Fourth Master had no other instructions, the monk did not dare to ask more questions, so he respectfully responded, then turned around and left the study.

"Oh, Xiao Wang lost again."

The fourth master's chess skills are already bad enough, the reason why he was able to compete with the chess master Wu Sidao is that Wu Sidao gave up his fourth son, and now his mood has been disturbed by the news brought by the monk Well, this chess naturally gets worse and worse as you play, but after a dozen or so moves, you have no choice but to concede defeat.

"That's because the prince's heart is disturbed."

Wu Sidao shook his head, and unceremoniously pointed out what fourth master was thinking.

"Um……"

Fourth Master's heart is indeed in a mess, not just a general mess, but a mess. Because of this, for Wu Sidao's conclusion, Fourth Master really doesn't know besides taking a deep breath. What should I say.

"Your Majesty is very kind to King Renjun as the chief examiner of this subject. Is it a good thing? It's hard to say whether it will be good or not."

There is no need to ask at all, Wu Sidao can see through at a glance why Fourth Master is worried. It is nothing more than fear of Hongqing's further expansion of power, but there is nothing unusual about it. However, Wu Sidao's views are obviously different from Fourth Master's. They are not consistent, but seeing his sneering smile, he has already given an indecipherable judgment.

"Huh? Sir, what you mean is..."

Hearing Wu Sidao's strange words, the fourth master couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, and seemed to have vaguely thought of some key points, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that he was not sure, so he had to hesitate to ask half of the words .

"Your Majesty has been in power for sixty years, and it is nearly seventy years old. Even if you don't accept the old age, you may have to make some preparations for the past and the future. Previously, the Renjun King was arranged to supervise the country, and this time he was asked to be the chief examiner. It's all the same thing, probably because His Majesty's favorite successor is King Renjun. As for the third master, he's just a transitional generation, and it's nothing to worry about. The prince should be able to understand this point Get it through."

Wu Sidao was not in a hurry to explain what he said before, but analyzed the current situation thoroughly from a macro perspective.

"Ah."

What Wu Sidao said was the truth, although the fourth master was full of heart and didn't want to admit it, but he couldn't open his eyes and tell nonsense, so he could only make a noncommittal noncommittal and finish the matter.

"Your Majesty, as long as you are not blind, you will be able to understand the mystery of how you uplift King Renjun. Not only the prince can, but also the eighth master, and even the third master knows it well. And this is Where it can be used!"

Wu Sidao didn't care about Fourth Master's embarrassment at all, and went on to analyze it on his own.

"Well, even though that's the case, since Huang Mafa is biased, I'm afraid it's difficult to have strength?"

For Wu Sidao's analysis, Fourth Master naturally agrees in his heart, but obviously he doesn't think that this can really bring down Hong Qing.

"Oh, the prince is right. With His Majesty around, as long as King Renjun doesn't commit such a terrible crime, no one can shake his position, not even the third master, but if His Majesty himself has a problem , so what then?"

Wu Sidao smiled and clapped his hands, pointing out the crux of the problem.

"Huh? How do you say that, sir?"

As soon as Wu Sidao said this, Fourth Master's eyes lit up instantly, and he hurriedly asked a question.

"Heh, His Majesty's appointment of King Renjun as the chief examiner is certainly out of good intentions, but it is too hasty. Let alone the fact that King Renjun himself is still inexperienced and his literary name is not obvious, no matter how fair the selection of scholars is, he will inevitably suffer If someone criticizes him, if he stirs it up a little, Ying Jing'er will cause a storm, not to mention that Ba Ye will sit back and watch Ren Jun Wang's momentum rise again, and it is inevitable to make trouble in secret. If something weird happens in the examination room , Ren Junwang, the chief examiner, is afraid that bad luck will come, even if His Majesty has the heart to protect each other, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the literati in the world to talk, and this is not the key, the real reason may lie in His Majesty's dragon body."

Wu Sidao smiled coldly, stretched out his hand to stroke the long beard on his chest, and analyzed it in a hoarse voice.

"Sir, you mean Huang Amata..."

In the past year, the old man has lived like a dragon and a tiger. Although he seldom goes out of the Changchun Garden, there is no delay in his official business. There is no problem with the dragon's body at all. But at this moment, Wu Sidao hinted The old man's life expectancy is not long, fourth master is unavoidably taken aback.

"This is an inevitable fact. Your Majesty has been very strong all his life. He seems generous, but in fact his desire to control is far superior to ordinary people. On his birthday the year before last, the dragon body was already in condition. After all, it is old. But it seems to be cured, but in fact the root of the disease has long been buried. If it is really ruled by King Renjun, he may live for another ten years. However, His Majesty is so strong that he does not want to lose power. This is why the case of Liang Xuwen happened. The mistake is not the general knowledge of the king of Renjun, I am afraid that it will be involved in this case early, the prince was a lesson learned from the past! Hey, it is a good thing to be competitive, but it is the same as success, and the same is true of failure. After half a year of hard work, your majesty's energy It is already exhausted, and within a few months, something will undoubtedly go wrong, if something goes wrong in this department, your Majesty's dragon body may collapse even faster, the prince must make plans early."

Wu Sidao nodded, continued to reason in a dark tone, and finally came to the conclusion that the old man's life would not last long.

"Please sir teach me?"

Hearing Wu Sidao explain the truth so clearly, Fourth Master couldn't calm down anymore. After a long time when his complexion changed from red to white, he cupped his hands at Wu Sidao and sincerely asked for advice.

"The mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole is behind!"

Wu Sidao didn't make a long speech this time, but just gave an extremely short answer.

"This……"

The fourth master is also a scheming person, although Wu Sidao only gave one sentence, but the fourth master thought of a lot in an instant, but with all kinds of thoughts entangled, it is really difficult to figure out a clue.

"Nian Gengyao!"

After Wu Sidao let Fourth Master think about it for a while, he named his name word by word.

"Ah."

Fourth master didn't say much, just let out a soft noncommittal sound, but he couldn't hide the hotness and fierceness in his eyes...

"My lord, my lord!"

It was just after noon, the weather was extremely cold, and there was really no entertainment to speak of. After lunch, Ba Ye went to bed, hugged a beautiful concubine, and was sleeping soundly, But he heard the voice of the servant girl calling in succession.

"Um……"

Ba Ye was very sleepy, he was really annoyed by being disturbed, he opened his eyes suddenly, and let out a cold snort full of displeasure.

"My lord, Master Jiu and Master Shi are here, and they say they have something important to see you."

Seeing the anger of Ba Ye, the little girl who came to report couldn't hold back immediately, she took a half step back in panic, and hurriedly explained something.

"Well, change clothes!"

Hearing that the nine or twelve younger brothers had arrived, the Eighth Master couldn't care less about competing with the little maid, so he stood up and gave instructions impatiently.

"twitter!"

When Ba Ye gave such an order, the maidservants who were waiting nearby did not dare to be negligent, they all complied, rushed forward one after another, and hurriedly dressed Ba Ye.

"Brother, can you still sleep? Grandma is a bear, something serious happened!"

After the eighth master was fully dressed, he went to the Xinuan Pavilion where he usually discussed affairs. Just now he turned around from the screen at the entrance of the pavilion, and the tenth master jumped forward to meet him, roaring anxiously The ground yelled.

"Tenth brother, please be safe and don't be impatient. If there is anything to do, sit down and talk slowly before it's too late."

Eighth Master knew Tenth Master's irritable temper long ago, and tenth Master's mouth can magnify even the most trivial matters. Because of this, even if Tenth Master roared loudly, Eighth Master didn't care much, he was just gentle He waved his hand calmly, and gave an order in a calm manner.

"Hey, starling, the old thing suddenly made a decree to let that bastard Hong Qing be the chief examiner of this subject. What the hell is this?"

If anyone was the most despised of Hongqing's gaining power, the tenth master must be the first one. At this moment, his heart was full of anger, and he had no patience at all. He stomped his feet and roared angrily.

"What? The chief examiner is here?"

The reason why Ba Ye was not in a hurry before was probably because the situation in the court has been as stable as a pool of stagnant water recently. He naturally didn't believe that something big could happen, but when he heard what Shi Ye said, his eyes immediately widened , bewilderedly asked.

"Oh, my good starling, you are all sleepy and sleepy, grandma is a bear, this has been spread all over the capital, the old man's decree at noon made Hong Qing'er the chief examiner for this year's spring boudoir , What a fucking bad luck, I don't know what the old man wants to do!"

Seeing that Ba Ye didn't get over it for a long time, Shi Ye was really furious, and cursed out of his mouth full of foul words. As soon as these words came out, Ba Ye's face suddenly became gloomy, and it was as dark as a pan The bottom is generally the same...
